Calamity Jane Alexander

Jane Alexander
I don't usually post anything quite as masculine as these, but they're still Jane Alexander. They're from a 1984 television movie called Calamity Jane, which is about Martha Jane Cannary Burke, who was even less feminine.

Rolling Thunder Girl

Linda Haynes
Linda Haynes in the Paul Schrader-scripted revenge yarn Rolling Thunder (1977). She has the sweetest little voice. I understand she's a legal secretary these days.

Angel Face Too

Mona Freeman
So I'm watching the DVD of Angel Face (1952) with Robert Mitchum and the lovely Jean Simmons. And you know that I love Jean Simmons and her eyes and everything, right? But she's wearing a bad wig in the movie, and that's sort of distracting and unattractive. And I fast-forwarded through some of the slower and more predictable scenes. Funny, I watched it a second time with Eddie Muller's commentary track, and didn't fast-forward through him at all. He does a nice job and doesn't take himself too seriously. I always enjoy his stuff. Anyway, then there's the film's "good girl" role, played by petite (5'1") and pretty Mona Freeman, and she really impressed me. She looks like a young Martha Hyer, but without the coolness or coldness. I thought Mona Freeman was an angel face, too.

The Dog Days of Summer 2

Sharon Tate
Yup, it's hot outside. Work majorly sux. It's muggy.
It's buggy and sweaty and sticky and funky.
And the whole world smells like rotting gym shoes

and hyena puke. Dog days indeed.
